Cap space post Davis signing

[KSpan]

Damn cap space has always been like dry land in Waterworld. Like you hope it exists but you've never actually seen it for yourself. 

 

Gettleman is like Kevin Costner. 

​KB's tattoos were the final piece of the map.

fugin right. save that poo for keuchley and norman and then roll over whatever's left. we gotta start thinking about how to deal with charles johnson, who will end up being the last of the big hurney contracts once we assassinate jonathan stewart 

[UNCrules2187]

If I'm not mistaken, given that TD's salary stayed $7.25m and he got $9m to sign, prorated over 3 years, that brings his 2015 cap # to $10.25m, which actually slices our cap space nominally ($9.9m cap number before extension vs. $10.25m now). 

The deal includes a $9 million signing bonus, part of a total compensation package of $10.25 million in 2015. He’ll make $3.5 million in 2016 and $4.25 million in 2017.

The deal also has an injury guarantee of $1.5 million in 2016. The $10.25 million to be earned in 2015 is fully guaranteed.

Getting Luke re-signed as soon as possible is obviously the priority, but I'd love to see Josh Norman re-signed sooner rather than later. 

[camtheone]

Can we lock Luke up long term now and just give him an extra 9 million this year (gives us around 6 million to carryover) and lower his cap number for the next few years.  KEEP POUNDING!!!

[LinvilleGorge]

Possibly extensions for Luke and Norman.

​I don't get it. Are you saying that our GM has gills behind his ears?

[MHS831]

We have never been in better financial shape while contending. 

[Kevin Greene]

I don't think there's much left on the market. We might give someone an extension or just carry it over. 

​I would not be adverse to a large carry over.

If the Oline does not protect our Franchise that we are fully committed to this season, spend large dollars bringing in FA help next offseason to ensure Cam's health and success.

[Kevin Greene]

My God can you imagine Cam dealing behind a line of the quality they have in Dallas?

[Ivan The Awesome]

Gettleman won't go into a bidding war over a coveted free agent. If you've noticed he'll give a fair deal and the player has to fit the system. He has to be a good fit.  Otherwise it won't work. There aren't any players in the market tight now to spend on that will fit this team the way Gettleman sees it. I'm alright with that. I'd rather he keep building through the draft and sign role players like he's been doing than go marty hurney on some overrated player. We aren't desperate anymore. We can choose now.

We need to finish extending our core, those we definitely want to keep. It's vital. Why? Because when we win the Super Bowl, 31 other teams will be trying to sign our FA's. Our core should not become FA's anytime soon. You know, so we can win the Super Bowl a 2nd time.

Just thinking ahead here ................. :D

I'd like to get to the Packers level. Where 90+% of the team was drafted by them.
